§ 66734 Community College Transfer Guarantee

Key Takeaways

  • •Community colleges in California must offer classes that count toward a bachelor's degree at public universities like Cal State or UC schools.
  • •The people in charge must make sure students know which classes will transfer and count for their major or general education.
  • •This is to help students avoid taking classes that won’t help them later when they transfer.

Example

A student takes a math class at a community college and later transfers to a Cal State school.

The community college must make sure that math class counts toward the student’s degree at Cal State. They also have to tell the student clearly which classes will transfer and which ones won’t.
